Abstract/Summary

The Radioecology Exchange (www.radioecology-exchange.org) was created in 2011
under the EU FP7 STAR (STrategy for Allied Radioecology, www.star-radioecology.org)
Network of Excellence; (2011-2015). This project aims to integrate radioecological research
efforts of European organisations into a sustainable network. In 2013, the EU FP7 COMET
(COordination and iMplementation of a pan-European instrumenT for radioecology (2013-
2017); www.comet-radioecology.org) project commenced; COMET will build upon the work
initiated under STAR. The Radioecology Exchange has therefore become the web resource
for activities from both projects which will ultimately be maintained by the European
Radioecology Alliance (ALLIANCE; www.er-alliance.org). The Radioecology Exchange is
intended to become a ‘gateway’ for information related to European (and wider)
radioecological research.
